Did this El Camino have a 427 in it when the original owner sold it? I talked to a guy in MN a few years ago that had an identical one, but with a 427. He had the original engine stashed. In fact, the NOS 69 Chevelle inner fenders that I bought were from the guy. I have his name in my records somewhere.

same guy. he had NOS stuff I guess (was a chevy dealers parts counter guy for years). He ran an L88 in it for a while I believe, and may even another radical engine.
had the original engine on the side is what he told me.
he is still around too.

Huh. Small world.

This car was in Bovey MN most of it's life. The original owner worked at Iten Chev and traded his 69 SS 396/L-78 nova for it. The car was painted candy apple red with etched windows and tru spoke wires most of time it was up here. Real deal low mile 396/ L-78 el camino.

[black69]

I think its going up to canada if the wire went through. It is a fine ride for sure.

To buy it but I got shut down by the missus

It fits the whole family ....
But I still like that L 78 elky anyway.
